Clothing, clothes, clothe, cloth, cloths，这五个英语单词，由于外形接近，含义也比较近似，如何正确区分及使用这5个单词相信会令不少人抓狂。今天Will的美语课就为大家深度解析一下这五个单词的区别，帮你更好地学习英语单词。
Clothing vs. Clothes
Clothing和clothes都是指衣服，在很多时候可以互换（interchangeable）。但是在使用上，clothing更加泛指，你可以把它翻译为中文里的“服饰”、“衣物”、“衣着”。而clothes则通常指某个人具体穿的衣服，或特指某件衣服。注意：clothing是不可数名词（uncountable noun），而clothes只有复数形式（plural form only）。比较这几个句子的区别：

Clothe vs clothes
这两个单词的外形实在是太接近了，稍不留神，很可能会误认为clothe是衣服，而clothes是衣服的复数形式呢。其实，clothes本身就是复数形式（plural form），clothes没有单数形式（it has no singular form）。
Clothe其实是个动词！！！意思是：穿上衣服。例句：she was clothed all in white. The children were clothed in warm fleece. 还有一种比较形象的说法：为。。。穿上外衣。如：”People clothe the act of vengeance in all sorts of justifications” (James Carroll).
Cloth vs cloths
Cloth的意思是布，布匹。a fabric formed by weaving, felting, etc., from wool, hair, silk, flax, cotton, or other fiber, used for garments, upholstery, and many other items. 通常用于制衣、或装潢，以及其他用品。而cloths，是cloth的复数形式，注意：并非clothes哦。
